sp. n. is characterised by a brown head band occupying more than 70% of the head length; short, sub-quadrate, anteriorly concave pseudorostrum; antennula article 1 distolateral angle strongly serrate, large and asymmetrical mandible incisors, and the maxilliped endite with a smooth and obliquely angled distomesial margin, lacking a distinct mesial notch. The mandible and spine row morphology is unique within the genus, and the broadly rounded posterior incisory cusp of the right mandible can usually be seen under stereomicroscopy, in both adults and juveniles.
